This is a basic intro lesson to settle students into the new GCSE. However, the video and worksheet can be used in Key Stage 3. You must have a Copy of the Spivey documentary on Elizabeth I from the Kings & Queens series. The worksheet connects to it. Scheme of Work is there as a guide

LOOK OUT FOR MY ELIZABETHAN MEGA AND SUPER BUNDLES You have the images within a PowerPoint for you to manipulate and change to suit your needs.Each piece of WordArt covers a sub-unit of the GCSE Edexcel Early Elizabethan England Unit. Some have two pieces of WordArt. There are 16 in total. The PRINT version is the WordArt alone. The overlay is the same but with the unit heading so students can organise their thoughts. The 8 Key Words uses the WordArt and combines it with another paid resource to help with revision. They are in PDF so you can slice the A5 and have a quick exercise or discussion with them. Any concerns, simply message me. Wordcloud is there for your use.

These images contain keywords from the Edexcel GCSE units that have merged into artwork from the time to create WordArt. This images can be used to recap a unit, revise for an exam or spark interest in a unit.

You can use the cube as a learning, selection and revision tool. This cube focuses on Elizabeth I’s suitors Can you research/ explain/ discuss whatever is facing up on the cube? This is just one cube, the Elizabeth I GCSE cube contains 9 cubes for you to use.

These are two PDFs which contain blank word searches and a space for name, title and ten keywords. The student lists the words and puts them into the word search. They then fill up the word search with care not to make the same words appear again. Nice simple activity for the class and a great way for them to review key words.

Blank sheet print outs that have 8 to a page and 2 to a page. See my shop for Editable version.

Lesson Plan and Extract only. Look for PAID resource. The lesson plan is for one or two lessons if you use the videos and have discussions. Sample worksheets and PowerPoint are attached. For the full PowerPoint and Worksheets search for the PAID resource.

This is a single lesson for top ability but with the use of the movie and discussion, this could be a two part lesson on how to analyse an unseen extract in preparation for your exam. PPT, PDF Extract, Lesson Plan and a worksheet (6 versions) Good luck with the lesson. It was good enough in an interview!
